Last race finished in Chile

7th September 2011 at 11:23PM

What a day, the frustration continued as we started the race at 9am, and 75 skiers and a million 'holds' later we were finished at 11.45. 

Luckily it was well worth the wait as Luke Steyn looked like a man possessed out of the start gate, blasting down to score a 69 point result, his best to date. Kieran Norris was also on form, recording his best Super-G result to date while nursing a thumb injury from yesterday's downhill. Roy Steudle started bib 12 but was not as fast as he would have liked, recording a respectable time but not quite getting the line right.

For the girls, there were some good attitudes and some aggressive starts but again the Russians were just too fast and a few mistakes left us too far off of the pace. Thomasine returned from her calf injury to record a PB Super-G result but there is definitely more to come from this group during the European winter.

For now that's all - we will have some free-skiing fun tomorrow before packing up and heading down to Santiago on Friday at midday. It has been an awesome camp, the best i have been involved in from a training point of view by a country mile, you simply cannot beat the variety and volume of training available here. The races included lots of P.B's and i hope this is a sign of more to come during the 11/12 winter.

A great job by all of the Ambition athletes here!! Look forward to getting more of the pics online once home.

Over and Out.

Marc & Jutty
